1
The revelation of this Book is from Allah, the Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom.
2
Verily it is We Who have revealed the Book to thee in Truth: so serve Allah, offering Him sincere devotion.
3
Is it not to Allah that sincere devotion id due? But those who take for protectors others than Allah (say): We only serve them in order that they may bring us nearer to Allah. Truly Allah will judge between them in that wherein they differ. But Allah Guides not such as are false and ungrateful.
4
Had Allah wished to take to Himself a son, He could have chosen whom He pleased out of those whom He doth create: but Glory be to Him. (He is above such things. ) He is Allah, the one, the Irresistible.
5
He created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions): He makes the Night overlap the Day, and the Day overlap the Night: he has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law): each one follows a course for a time appointed. Is not He the Exalted in Power He Who forgives again and again?
6
He created you (all) from a single Person: then created, of like nature, his mate; and He sent down for you eight head of cattle in pairs: He makes you, in the wombs of your mothers, in stages, one after another, in three veils of darkness. Such is Allah, your Lord and Cherisher: to Him belongs (all) dominion. There is no god but He: then how are ye turned away (from your true Centre)?
7
If ye reject (Allah), truly Allah hath no need of you; but He liketh not ingratitude from His servants: if ye are grateful, He is pleased with you. No bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another. In the End, to your Lord is your Return, when He will tell you the truth of all that ye did (in this life). For He knoweth well all that is in (men's) hearts.
8
When some trouble toucheth man, he crieth unto hid Lord, turning to Him in repentance: but when He bestoweth a favour upon him as from Himself, (man) doth forget what he cried and prayed for before, and he doth set up rivals unto Allah, thus misleading others from Allah's Path. Say, Enjoy thy blasphemy for a little while: verily thou art (one) of the Companions of the Fire.
9
Is one who worships devoutly during the hours of the night prostrating himself or standing (in adoration), who takes heed of the Hereafter, and who places his hope in the Mercy of his Lord (like one who does not)? Say: are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition.
10
Say: O ye My servants who believe fear your Lord. Good is (the reward) for those who do good in this world. Spacious is Allah's earth those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure.
11
Say: Verily, I am commanded to serve Allah with sincere devotion;
12
And I am commanded to be the first of those who bow to Allah in Islam.
13
Say: I would, if I disobeyed my Lord, Indeed have fear of the Penalty of a Mighty Day.
14
Say: It is Allah I serve, with my sincere (and exclusive) devotion:
15
Serve ye what ye will beside Him. Say: Truly, those in loss are those who lose their own souls and their People on the Day of Judgment: ah that is indeed the (real and) evident Loss.
16
They shall have Layers of Fire above them, and Layers (of Fire) below them: with this doth god warn off His Servants: O My Servants then fear ye Me
17
Those who eschew Evil, and fall not into its worship, and turn to Allah (in repentance), fro them is Good News to My Servants,
18
Those who listen to the Word, and follow the best (meaning) in it: those are the ones whom Allah has guided, and those are the ones endued with understanding.
19
Is, then, one against whom the decree of Punishment is justly due (equal to one who eschews evil)? Wouldst thou, then, deliver one (who is) in the Fire?
20
But it is for those who fear their Lord, that lofty mansions, one above another, have been built: beneath them flow rivers (of delight): (such is) the Promise of Allah: never doth Allah fail in (His) promise.
21
Seest thou not that Allah sends down rain from the sky, and leads it through springs in the earth? then He causes to grow, therewith, produce of various colours: then it withers; thou wilt see it grow yellow; then He makes it dry up and crumble Away. Truly, in this, is a Message of remembrance to men of understanding.
22
Is one whose heart Allah has opened to Islam, so that he has received enlightenment from Allah, (no better than one hard hearted)? Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against celebrating the praises of Allah. They are manifestly wandering (in error)
23
Allah has revealed (from time to time) the most beautiful Message in the form of a Book, consistent with itself, (yet) repeating (its teaching in various aspects): the skins of those who fear their Lord tremble thereat; then their skins and their hearts do soften to the celebration of Allah's praises. Such is the guidance of Allah: he guides therewith whom He pleases, but such as Allah leaves to stray, can have none to guide.
24
Is, then, one who has to fear the brunt of the Penalty on the Day of Judgment (and receive it) on his face, (like one guarded therefrom)? It will be said to the wrongdoers: taste ye (the fruits of) what ye earned.
25
Those before them (also) rejected (revelation), and so the Punishment came to them from directions they did not perceive.
26
So Allah gave them a taste of humiliation in the present life, but greater is the Punishment of the Hereafter, if they only knew.
27
We have put forth for men, in this Quran every kind of Parable, in order that they may receive admonition.
28
(It is) a Quran in Arabic, without any crookedness (therein): in order that they may guard against Evil.
29
Allah puts forth a Parable a man belonging to many partners at variance with each other, and a man belonging entirely to one master: are those two equal in comparison? Praise be to Allah but most of them have no knowledge.
30
Truly thou wilt die (one day), and truly they (too) will die (one day).
